Unlike Russia, China's economy is built on trade relations with the West, especially the US, so China has a built-in economic incentive not to strike the US with a nuclear weapon. Indeed, it's counterproductive for the US to engage in a trade war with China: the greater the bond, the less likely China would attack the US. Rather than all the sabre rattling from the usual suspects, the Biden Administration and its successor should be focused on mending the trade rift and strengthening the trade ties with China.
